Description
This route is a challenging climb that zigzags up the side of a butte to reach the small town of Virgin. It’s only a short connecter route to get from La Verkin up to the route that goes into Zion Canyon or Kolob Terrace. This route is mainly used by those doing a much longer ride from St. George to Zion.
